Big Capitalist

Chapter 178 "Exam" is over

Merlin stretched out his hand and pointed at the deformed deacon of the Ancient God Cult. That finger was like the judgment of God, full of unquestionable majesty.

Under Merlin's guidance, the surrounding moonlight instantly gathered and transformed into beams of light, like a god's sword, pointing directly at the deformed deacon of the Ancient God Cult.

The beam of light penetrated his body, and the powerful energy instantly shattered and melted his flesh. As the deacon of the Ancient God Cult cried out to "the Lord" miserably, his body gradually dissipated under the moonlight, and finally turned into wisps of black smoke that were blown away into the air by the night wind.

Merlin watched this scene coldly, without a trace of pity in his eyes. With the disappearance of the deacon of the Ancient God Cult, the moonlight gradually returned to calm, and it fell on Merlin again, like the comfort of the gods.

Arthur looked at the forest that was gradually returning to its peaceful state, and felt the scorching heat emanating from the sword in his hand. He looked around and asked uncertainly, "Is it all over?"

Tinavia transformed into Stacie and stood beside her. She looked at Merlin standing in the moonlight with a serious and shocked expression and asked, "Did you see that just now?"

Stacy nodded. She saw that Merlin's expression was exactly the same as Tinavia's, both were filled with shock. "Ah, that's the Moon God Technique..."

The bright moon in the sky was gradually covered by the dark clouds. Merlin looked at the direction where the deacon of the Ancient God Cult disappeared. The moonlight on his body gradually dissipated, and his sapphire-like eyes no longer radiated a mysterious glow.

"Is it over?" Merlin muttered to himself, as if asking someone else. Then he suddenly felt severe pain all over his body, his head was buzzing, and he suddenly lost consciousness and fell straight down.

Stacy and Arthur rushed to Merlin's side. Before Merlin fell unconscious, he could still hear Stacy and Arthur calling out to him...

Merlin was awakened by a loud noise. He regained consciousness, but his head was aching. He sat up and rubbed his temples, trying to dispel the trance. The surroundings surprised him - he was in his own high-end dormitory, and the sun shone through the curtains, reflecting a warm glow.

Before he could think too much, there was a noisy sound outside the window, like some kind of commotion, and his curiosity drove him to stand up and open the window. The scene that came into his eyes made him stunned for a moment.

A large number of students holding signs gathered downstairs, as if they were holding a demonstration. The signs had slogans such as "Unfair!", "Unjust!", "The academy is a lackey of the nobles!", "Ordinary students' lives are lives too, we want an explanation!" This made Merlin look confused, and he had no idea what was going on.

Just as he was trying to digest the scene in front of him, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Stacy, Chris, and Fate walked in. Seeing Merlin standing on the windowsill, the three of them were stunned for a moment, and then quickly surrounded him and asked with concern, "Merlin, when did you wake up? How do you feel? Are you feeling unwell?"

Merlin shook his head. Although he felt that there was nothing serious, his legs were a little weak, his body seemed a little weak, and his face was pale, as if he was anemic. He couldn't help but ask, "How many days have I been unconscious?"

Chris's expression was a little complicated. "It's been three days."

"Three days?" Merlin was shocked. He didn't expect that he had been unconscious for so long. So he asked anxiously, "What happened after I fell into the coma? How was the final exam?"

Stacy immediately took over the conversation, "Merlin, after you fell unconscious, Arthur and I planned to take you back to the Goblin Tribe, but before we could leave, members of the Student Union and teachers from the academy arrived and took us back to the academy safely."

"The final exams also ended early," Chris added. "During the final exams for the first-year students at the Arcane Academy, a cult invasion occurred, which made the students panic. But fortunately, because of you and Arthur, the number of student casualties was kept to a minimum."

Merlin frowned as he listened. "Did I do something?"

"At first everyone thought you were captured by the goblins," Fate continued. "So with Carl's action, Delia and Alex gathered the students together to rescue you. Later it was discovered to be a misunderstanding, but you transformed the goblin tribe so that the first-year candidates basically gathered around the tribe. This made it easier for the student union and teachers to rescue you. They didn't have to run around. And those students who bought adventure insurance were protected by the goblins, so they were rescued without being in any major danger."

"As for the rest of the candidates," Stacy continued, "most of them followed Arthur and escaped under his cover. Only a few unlucky guys were killed by the evil god's followers..." She stopped talking before she finished, and there was no need to say the rest.

After listening to this, Merlin touched his chin, a complex emotion welling up in his heart. His contemplation made the atmosphere around him solemn. Stacy, Chris and Fate all looked at him silently, waiting for his reaction.

“Well, have there been any cases of students who have purchased adventure insurance and died?”

Merlin asked Stacy, who was stunned for a moment and then shook her head, "No."

Merlin instantly breathed a sigh of relief. The best news was that he didn't have to pay any money. He suddenly thought of something, "What about those goblins? Didn't the teacher kill that Goblin?"

"How is that possible? The teachers knew that it was the goblins from the Goblin Tribe who saved the students. They were so grateful that they couldn't express their gratitude. How could they kill them? Don't worry, they are all fine in the Monster Mountain Range. Many goblins died because of this cult incident."

Merlin nodded after hearing what Fate said. He was glad that the group of goblins were fine. After all, Merlin already regarded the Goblin Tribe and all the goblins in it as his own property. In the future, he would rely on them to enter the Warcraft Mountain Industry.

As for the goblins who died, Merlin was very grateful for their efforts to protect their property at all costs. He would reward the goblins greatly and buy them a few more bags of aged moldy rice. As for the population loss of the tribe, it was normal for goblins to have seven or eight babies in a litter, and they could grow into a working force in a year. As long as Goblint, the bishop of Galanzi, was not dead, everything would be fine. Even for Goblint, he had seen a lot of his companions die, so he would not be very painful and might even think it was a good thing. After all, winter was coming soon, and the death of a group of them could save a lot of food.

For Goblin, 99% of goblins are consumables. As long as his status as king can be guaranteed, it will be enough. If that doesn't work, there is Dunlop. He can just resurrect them with undead magic and they can continue to work for him to make money. The undead don't need to eat food and can grow cotton. I just don't know if the goblins who practice holy light will like it.
